Prior to the release of Beyond Light, Bungie had announced plans to vault some of its content to improve the game. With the launch of the expansion the past Destiny 2 iterations of Randal such as the violet and nightmare Vandals were also vaulted to the great disappointment of the community. However, the past nightmares were just a bed time story, as Bungie announced the return of real Randal the Vandal with the return of the [[Cosmodrome]]. | Prior to the release of Beyond Light, Bungie had announced plans to vault some of its content to improve the game.

===The Avaricious Vandal=== | ===The Avaricious Vandal=== | ||
With the rediscovery of the legendary Loot Cave came the joyful news of Randal the Vandal being found within its depths, tormenting both ambitious Guardians as well as the [[Hive]]. According to the messages left behind by [[Wilhelm-7]], Randal had lured his fireteam into the cave. There he would also be spotted several times throughout the [[Grasp of Avarice]] [[dungeon]], dropping fake [[Engram]]s (which could then be used to open loot chests to acquire the Gjallarhorn Catalyst) upon being harmed. He was, however, unable to be killed, vanishing when his health dropped critically low. | With the rediscovery of the legendary Loot Cave came the joyful news of Randal the Vandal being found within its depths, tormenting both ambitious Guardians as well as the [[Hive]].

===The Thieving Vandal=== | |||
With the enemies of Humanity [[Onslaught|assaulting]] on the home fronts of the [[Last City]], Cosmodrome and [[Iron Temple]], the robotic dog named [[Archangel|Archie]] would journey to Old Russia to discover the ancient Golden Age secrets that could be found. Traveling across the Cosmodrome to many locales like the Loot Cave, [[Terrestrial Complex]] and the Warmind Bunker deep below the [[Grottos]], Randal would make his return as he hunted Archie with the Guardian in tow. | |||
Randal would be one step ahead of the Guardians as they tracked Archie's footprints across the Cosmodrome, eventually reaching the [[Dock 13|old lair]] of the [[Riksis, Devil Archon|Devil Archon]] and containing the robotic dog within an Ether barrier. The Guardian would reach Archie's location along with Randal and his vast reinforcements, including [[Servitor]]s and a [[Brig]]. After a gruesome struggle, Randal would flee the scene before the Guardian would end the undying Vandal and free Archie from his captor. | |||
